Father of many artificial life forms but hater of 'AI'. I wrote my first intelligent chatbot in 1978 and I promise never to do it again.

P.S. I'm not the hunky gay country singer! Although if you're interested in artificial life too, then I'm your guy.
That's a really nice demo! I don't think he once mentioned the word capacitance, yet coax is a capacitor. I wonder what, if anything, happens differently in a delay line. Fantastic channel!

Yes, apparently so! At least partly, anyway. Charlie Brooker reviewed it or maybe interviewed me, when he was a game journo, back in the 90’s. I guess I made an impression. A slightly sinister one!

Yes!!!! Perfect! Good luck with the takeover. Here's hoping for a sunny day. I have a few good targets for you, when you're ready...

Haha! Wonderful. Lucy’s in the Science Museum, amongst loads of (other) rusty old stuff. A friend is exactly what she needs!

I feel sure they can compose a well-crafted joint resignation letter in an hour.

Looks like the giraffes and elephants decided to pass on the deal. Don’t blame them - that ship's going nowhere.

Surely remaining in our homes and hoping for vaccines so that we could protect our fellows is the very epitome of prosocial behavior?

Hey Jenny! Yeah, I decided to come and join the cool kids. Haven’t quite plucked up the courage to delete my twitter account yet, but I hovered over the button, so I’m close…

Likewise! Bluesky is like a breath of fresh air, isn't it? I'm glad I noticed you. Lucy is now in the permanent collection of the Science Museum, and 9 year-old me is very proud of her! I'm expecting her to write to me any day... :)

Everything is feedback, but the worst scenario here is a half-hearted tit-for-tat, where the protests and suppression ramp each other up inexorably, in an arms race. We need to become an immovable object, before they become an unstoppable force.
